Stumptown Coffee Coming “End of Summer” to Downtown LA Arts District

Stumptown Coffee Roasters is coming to the Arts District in Downtown LA in a yet-to-be-disclosed location by the end of summer

Several credible sources have confirmed that Portland-based Stumptown Coffee Roasters has secured a location in the Arts District of Downtown LA. The exact location for LA’s first Stumptown is still being kept secret but a source has narrowed it down to an area somewhere between “Handsome Coffee and 7th Street.” In addition to a cafe, the new LA Stumptown will have a large roasting facility to better serve their wholesale clients in the LA area, which includes Spring for Coffee and Cafe Dulce among others. The current timeline is to have Stumptown open by the “end of summer.”

This is great news and further cements LA as a coffee mecca. Handsome Coffee already makes the best lattes hands down in the city (with Intelligentsia close behind), and I’m sure the Stumptown cafe will be equally as exacting.

I imagine that it really is 7th place that is meant, as the only location I can think of where it might be going is the old Heinz building on Santa Fe between 7th Street and 7th Place (or potentially the old fire station next door).

There really isnt anywhere for it to go on Industrial, unless its on the other side of Mill, which is a bit sketchy (I work on Industrial across the street from the biscuit so know the block well).
